11/4/22  Joining the Rogers Local Food and Art Market downtown was quite an adventure this season! I found out after only week 1 that I had to add another baker to my team. Jordan Fickle, a student at Brightwater NWA jumped in and was a faithful team player baking artisan sourdough right along with me. Together we were just able to keep up with the demand of an interesting variety of breads along with the regular popular sourdoughs. We met many new customers who quickly became regulars. Those faithful customers told their friends and so on and so on.... and by the end of the season our sales were increased by 124% from last year! We are so grateful to be in the downtown area where we can not only share our unique sourdough bread varieties but build relationships with business owners in the DTR area as well. Feeling a connection with our beloved community is an important factor of BHB as we take steps towards a permanent brick and mortar location to serve our residents all year long.

"I wanted to reach out and let you know I was able to help get three girls physicals for sports tryouts due to your donation. It is so important for them to feel part of their school and choosing activities like this requires an athletic physical which not all families can afford.  I appreciate it so much! I told them how amazing our community is due to people like you."
